Blooming Onion - Cvet od crnog luka

Blooming Onion

What you need

A small dish for your dip (it needs to be placed in the middle of an onion)

Supplies/Ingredients :

One egg

One cup of milk

One cup of flour

1 1/2 teespoons of salt

1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper

1/2 teaspoon black peppe

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon of herbs to taste

2 big onions

Canola oil for taste

1

Take the largest onion you managed to buy. Cut off the opposite side
of the root, somewhere between half and three quarters of the onion (the
closer to the half, the easier it gets).

2

Peel the onion and cut off the root and flush under cold water then dry.

3

With a large, sharp knife, make cuts at right angles, like a pizza,
but instead of 8 bits, make at least 16 and ideally 32 cuts. Be careful
not to cut through the onion, stopping these cuts about 2 cm before
reaching the base.

4

To let her become flower-shaped drop the onion buds down, opening it
(leave for two hours in the refrigerator it will speed up the process).

5

Mix the flour with the salt, peppers and thyme. Sprinkle the onion
with flour in enough quantity to get in between the buds of onion.
Remove the excess.

6

Dip the top down in the milk mixture and eggs and again add flour and remove excess (step 7). Now it is ready for frying.

Put enough oil into the frying pan to submerge the onion. Bring oil
to high temperature. With the help of a skimmer, put the onion top down
and fry for 2 minutes. Turn it and fry for another two minutes, turn it
over and fry another 2 minutes.

7

Remove it. Pat dry with paper towel and place it on the plate.

8

Secure the center with a fork, and with a sharp knife, remove the the inside to make a place for a dip dish.
